TV or Movies

[grog]

Just wondering any good shows you blokes watch? Tonight is 3rd episode of Vigil, not a bad Scottish show.  Im not a TV watcher really, just every now and then something good comes up. Last movies ive seen, I liked Yesterday, Elton story, Queen story, Once upon a time in Hollywood .

You're seeing the Vigil at the same time as us topside (See what I did there ) If you can try and find Line of Duty, or the Bodyguard, by the same production team. Just as good.
Martin Compston, who plays the whistleblower and comes a cropper in the Vigil has a much bigger part in Line of Duty.

hahaha saw the title of this thread and was going to recommend Vigil. :D

"Mr In Between" is good (Amazon Prime)
  Anyone who enjoyed  Robert G. Barrett's Les Norton books will like this show.
  Anyone who liked Breaking Bad will enjoy this show.

Really can't stand TV, hate the constant ads.  Don't mind watching things if I've recorded them & I can fast forward through them.

Ads really piss me off too, but how are you going to cram a 1 hour show into 1 hour 40 without them, and that's after all the good bits have been cut out.

Homeland, best thing I've seen for a long time

I gave my TV away in 1997, I can't remember what I watched on it. But it was boring, that's why I got rid.

We're watching Vigil too, very good so far. Keep going back to Justified every now and again, guess I just like to see idiots treated as idiots and arseholes getting shot. Must say something about me I suppose, bloody good show though

If you are prepared to give something with subtitles a go "The Bridge" is well worth watching -  It is a joint Danish / Sweedish Nordic Noir thing, about 10 episodes per series if I remember properly but I found myself so deep into it that after a few minutes I was not really concious that I was reading the dialogue rather than listning to it.

One of the laed charicters - Saga Noreen - is a work of writing genius

I'm on a Facebook page for Walter Presents which is the foreign language section of the All 4 streaming app from Channel 4. They'll talk about programmes from any provider , not just All 4. If someone comes on asking for something new to watch The Bridge is something they always recommend even though it is on BBC Iplayer.

Saga is a real character. I don't know if could last very long as her working partner.

Next episode of Vigil soon to start.

Vigil finishes next week - only 6 eps total :(

@MarkN Justified ?

Shes now stuck in torpedo tube, water flooding. Masterful writing to fix that.

Remember, she did ask if anyone understood morse. That will be her way out. 
Personally I think it should have been the sailors asking her. 

The two programmes I mentioned in my first posting here regularly ended the way this episode did.
